Custom Metal Exclusion

At Nuisance Wildlife Control, one of the most effective and lasting ways we protect homes from unwanted animals is through custom metal exclusion. Wildlife like squirrels, raccoons, bats, and birds are experts at finding small gaps in your home’s structure—and they only need a few inches to squeeze through. That’s why we fabricate and install custom-fitted metal barriers that seal off even the trickiest entry points.

Here are some of the most common areas we protect using high-quality custom metal:

Fascia Boards

Animals often target damaged or rotted fascia—the board running behind your gutters—because it’s easy to chew through and often leads directly into the attic. We install custom aluminum or galvanized steel fascia wraps to seal these weak spots and prevent re-entry.

Drip Edge Gaps

The drip edge, where the roof meets the fascia, can leave a narrow but dangerous gap that animals exploit to enter the attic. We fabricate metal flashing to cover these gaps cleanly, without disturbing your roofline or shingles.

Dormer and Roof-to-Wall Transitions

Dormer corners and roof-wall transitions are common weak points where siding meets the roof. These areas often have exposed gaps or soft materials that are easy to tear into. Our custom-bent metal seamlessly closes these spaces off—no more easy access for wildlife.

Soffit Returns

The soffit return—where the soffit meets the roof or wall—can become loose or warped over time, giving animals a direct path into your attic. We reinforce these returns with custom metal to both support and seal the area, eliminating entry points for good.

Chimney Caps

Animals love Chimneys especially bats. We cover these with vent guards or custom-cut mesh metal that allows for ventilation but keeps wildlife out.

Crawlspace and Foundation Access Points

Ground-level openings, such as crawlspace vents or foundation gaps, are another favorite spot for animals like skunks, opossums, and groundhogs. We install sturdy metal grates or plates to stop digging and entry while maintaining airflow.
